Three Lined Verses On The Birth Of My First Child Poem by Oscar Mireles
Three Lined Verses On The Birth Of My First Child
Rating: ★5.0
Legs strapped
to the delivery table
like a wish bone
my heart strapped
to my wife’s rib
making a wish
the doctor’s holding
the baby’s head
like a short prayer
“It’s a boy”
echoes in my throat
but I can’t shout!
Tossed as if a leaf
Into the arms of four nurses
I cut the umbiblical cord
Father, Dad
words that stand
at the head of the table
